Always love the wines from Elyse. Very balanced wine with fresh vibrant acidity and smoky raspberry with black pepper. Excellent as a pre Thanksgiving wine with cheese and stuffed mushrooms.

First comment was... "Howell Mt. Wine should come in bigger bottles!" Anytime I see a non-cab, Napa mountain sub-appellation, I have to pick it up. With today's economics, who grows zin on Howell Mt...? Someone who REALLY believes in it! Nailed it on this one. Big vanilla right way, balanced by chocolate, cassis, pepper and spice. Love it!
